Vivo V30 Pro

Full retail package with a charger and a case.

No stereo speakers.

Honestly, the only things the vivo V30 Pro left us wanting are a microSD slot slot and stereo speakers. Oh, and you definitely want to have a case on it at all times since it is incredibly slippery and hard to grip. None of these is a real dealbreaker...

Quad 50Mp cameras ; Slim and lightweight ; Long battery life ; Fast charging

Global availability is very limited ; No EIS at 4K 60fps ; Bloatware

The V30 Pro is undoubtedly the best mid-range phone for avid selfie shooters and a great option for photography in general. However, limited global availability might make it hard or impossible to get hold of.

Detailed rear cameras with clean processing ; Streamlined styling and sharp display ; Punchy mid-range performance and battery life

Availability very market-dependent ; FunTouch OS still heavy-handed on bloatware

Vivo’s best mid-range mobile effort yet. A Zeiss helping hand makes the V30 Pro a very capable camera phone, and is well-rounded everywhere else. There’s no shortage of competition at this price, though, and limited availability holds it back.

Beautiful design ; Superb camera performance ; Super fast charging

No stereo speakers ; Display is average ; Feels fragile in the hand

So the Vivo V30 Pro is a pretty decent smartphone. We have seen a pretty significant price jump this year, since the smartphone starts at a price of Rs 41,999 in India and for that, it can’t be called a simple mid-ranger anymore. But that’s no problem....
